Hello friends I sincerely apologize for the delay. I was extremely busy with exams. So here is the long awaited update.PART 7: A MAZE OF MYSTERIES
"Anika", he spoke in his husky voice, straightening his overlapped legs, "Tum jitni bewkoof dekhti ho utni ho nahi".
She continued staring at him blank, with neither thoughts nor words. She froze not by fear, but by shock.
He got down from his comfortable throne like a King (of Devil). His arched lips, raised eyebrows and smirked expression were enough to break an innocent girl's heart. He bridged the distance between him and her, moving dangerously close towards her like a predator but his prey, Anika, didn't show even the slightest of movement.
Close enough, he pulled her towards him by her waist. He looked into her deep eyes waiting to see the pain. But, what he in her beautiful orbs twinged his heart.
He, 'the ruthless SSO' felt guilty.
Words fell short but silence spoke in volumes. After what seemed like ages.
She spoke," Apne aisa kyun kiya Shivay?"
His trance broke but the guilt stayed firm. Those "innocent beautiful eyes" were the culprit. He twisted her body by holding her arms such that her back arched against his front.
With the culprit gone, the guilt too blew away.
"Meine aisa kyun kiya yeh tumhe jan ne ki zaroorat nahi hai. Tumne jitna kaha gaya hai utna karo. Omkara se shaadi todo. Aur aisa karne ke liye tumhare pass sirf 7 din hai", saying so he left her arms with a jerk.
She looked towards him from the side.
"Aur agar meine aisa nahi kiya to?"
"Nahin kiya to?", he laughed like Satan and continued dangerously, " to mein tumhe shaadi karne ke liye nahin chodunga"
She covered her mouth with her hand to control her sob and dashed out of his cabin appalled by his arrogant contempt.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
She drove straight towards Omkara's studio. Her face wet with tears flowing continuously from her eyes. She had to tell Om all about this. Moreover, she failed to understand Why would Shivay want her not to marry Omkara?
In fact, this marriage was extremely crucial for the deal and if she refuses to this marriage, the deal will be broken and his business would suffer.Unable to comprehend anything, she continued driving.
There was huge gathering there, a room full of students and beautiful exhibits all round. In the center of the hall, she noticed Om sitting on a slender 4-legged stool, drawing images in an artistic flair. She understood he was coaching his students about something very exquisite.
She waited patiently for the lecture to get over. One hour gone, the class was dismissed and she was caught among the students approaching like a swarm of bees towards the door while she hurriedly opposed the traffic flow. After a few minutes, the crowd cleared but Omkara was gone.
She traversed through the rooms in search of him. Finally, her eyes caught sight of that trademark pony tail. But, before she could shout out his name, she noticed a girl there playing with his hair. His hands were around her waist and her hands buried in his hair. She kissed him occasionally and he begged for more☺️
"Fools! Bina darwaza band kiye khidki tod harkatein", thought Anika, once realizing that the beauty in his arms was none other than 'Gauri'.
A smile graced her face watching their cute moves. She decided to wait outside and, of course, she shut the door softly to give them a 'khidki tod' opportunity😉
She walked through the passage and an instant thought struck her mind.
"What if! Shivay knows that Omkara and Gauri love each other, and perhaps he wants them to marry."
This thought,though failed to explain 'why did shivay stalk her?', did make sense. To be true, she felt relieved thinking of this as the possible reason for the misbehaviour. Hence, she decided not to talk to Omkara but Shivay instead and offer to help him. After all Om was her best friend and she also wanted Om-Gauri to be happily married forever.
She reversed her car and drove straight towards Shivay's mansion unaware of the danger waiting for her.

"Swetlana, tum ache se janti ho na ki yeh deal hamare liye kitni zyada zaroori hai aur woh 'Anika' usko tum ache se samjha dena ki usse yeh shaadi karni hi padegi", told a saree clad women in her late 40's with a evil smirk.
"Han mousi, ap chinta mat karo. Hume to bas yeh shaadi karwake Tej ki puri property ko hasil karni padegi. Bichara, woh to yeh janta tak nahi ki uske business mein jitna bhi loss ho raha hai woh kiski wazah se ho raha hai. Bewakoof, woh to yeh bhi nahi janta ki hum uska hi paisa usi ke business mein invest kar rahe hain ", she continued, "Waise janega bhi kaise. Woh apke upar itna biswas jo karte hain."
"Beta, iss viswas se hi to meine usse apni biwi, Jhanvi se door kar diya aur uske woh dost, un sab se dur kar diya.Bas ek baar yeh shaadi ho jaye phir uss Anika ka istamal karke hum Tej aur uss Omkara se unki saari property hadap lenge."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Shivay! What are you doing? Why are you blackmailing Anika? And, how does it matter if Omkara gets married to Anika?", enquired Mehta, "Tumhara focus iss waqt sirf Tej aur uski barbaadi pe hona chahiye. Us Omkara pe nahi."
"Mamaji, I do everything for a reason. Jhanvi Jewels in Tej Desai's only hope in recuperating the losses his company has been making in the last few years. And, since I am investing 50% of the money, Tej now trusts me bindly, after all I was a help in his need. Now, all I have to do is break Swetlana-Tej deal so that..."
"So that you and Tej are the only partners left which would persuade Tej to make the other 50% of the investment, thus forcing him into turbulent debts. And, finally after all the investment is done we will back off from the project leaving that poor Tej thick in debts.", completed Mehta in a single breath.
Delighted by the entire idea he hugged Shivay, "Finally beta, the death of our loved ones will be avenged."
